What if I use a push-up handle for this? I guess a medball is just more practical, I do not have one however.

Thanks! Now I have a visual of a proper proper sequence.

Far out.

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS ❤❤❤

Perfect explained!!! I would love if you do more type of video to do overcoming isometric without equipment ❤

I’m older , I do baby burpees and I train with caution ⚠️ because your heart rate can get ahead of your breathing and you can pass out or worse. Do them slow make sure to pause and take a few breaths 👍

do you do any training for neck?

Dude is talking about weight plates for 10 min.. what the fk is happening in the world… who cares get to work. Bunch of gimmick nonsense 200 for some BS weight vest when you can get a belt for 20$ such a joke.

Push ups, ring push ups, dips and ring dips. That's the list of chest exercises that hurt my shoulders, and why I have gone back to the gym and can't train 100% calisthenics.

I split it up. 2 x micro work outs (1 before work, 1 after) and grease the groove throughout the day as well x 4. Reasons: *Less daunting than one long workout *If you miss one micro session you haven’t blown the whole workout for the day

Have you seen the work of Harold Pontzer regarding calorie burning/usage?

Cool. Thanks.

Would this would with a kettlebell on its side?

This is good. Thanks Matt.

Would an overcoming isometric at the joint angle of initiation of a punch be a good idea?

The easy way to gain weight fast with push ups is to wear a weight vest. And don't take it off.

Thank you for the reminder! Identifying goals, commitment, and adapting have been required of all my major achievements. I have been battling a debilitating RSI that has negatively impacted my love of playing the bass guitar. After years of OT without getting results, I will be receiving a cubital tunnel release surgery. Post recovery, a wholistic approach to health is required to keep me in the music game. Rolling up sleeves!

I definitely need to start incorporating more isometrics. For me, I can see two major applications. (1) High tension shorter duration toward the beginning of the workout. (2)Adding lower intensity longer duration at the end of a set or supersetted with my main moves. I do a lot of KB front squats which are a great move, but are limited by the amount of weight I can use and specifically how much tension I can apply to my quads.

That's all I needed to know. Thanks for the excellent video.

Convict conditioning was a extremely good protocol, but nonetheless you can take a single exercise like a pushup done for extremely hard sets with enough rest between sets you (will gain size) intact even if you tried a harder variation it will translate.

Thank you for the video I really needed it

So this is what isometrics is

Bro is the best❤❤❤

Hi Matt. Ive just bought your isometric book and find it very interesting. I'm one of the people you have been talking about I have been a gym member and consistent since before covid but haven't lost any weight. I was a lifter of weights and could dead lift 65kg , i thought was was good for a 52 yr old menopausal woman. Anyway back to your book i was reading it and you recommend you other two books before that one so i went and bought the other two books. I had to cancel my gym membership as i cant do my job anymore as a gardener as i was diagnosed with Hand arm vibration syndrome in January so had to cut some thing to save money. I have spent the last few months walking some of the Tamara trail across the border of Cornwall and Devon in the UK , The trail as a whole is around 83 miles and we have done around 52 miles and still i haven't lost weight.. My home gym consists of bands, two kettle bells 6kg and 10kg and a suspension trainer, i also have a pair of paralettes in the shed which i need to dust off. so i think i'm in good stead to start a calisthenics journey all i need to do is work it into my routine. Do you have many women of a certain age following your RUclips ? Plus would you recommend this type of exercise to you gran, lol?

Too fluffy

I grew to hate gyms, so I bought a pull-up station and some dumbbell with adjustable weights, elastic bands and I have it at home. So zero willpower is needed, I just change clothes and workout, and no one stops me from doing some extra active hanging or some l sit during the day if I have extra energy to invest. It's fantastic.

Incline treadmill, folks. Incline treadmill.

This way of tracking feels even more hollow than what I already do. I log every one of my sessions publicly on a discord server each day that I workout regardless of what I do, listing what workouts I did, sets, reps, and pace. Publicly logging every time registers in my head as a trophy for having worked out period, even if I only do a couple of workouts that session and even if I do less sets than in the past. And everyone can see I'm still going which feels rewarding. If I just put down a scoreboard somewhere which is static, then it just sits there and means nothing until I manage to beat some number of reps or time goal or something. It doesn't feel active enough.

close grip hit tricep more

1)Lower your expectations. 2)Make minuscule gains repeatedly over time again and again. 3)Once in a while shoot for larger results but don’t be frustrated if it doesn’t happen 4)Some times, just maintaining and doing it is a win.

The problem is that I feel like my shoulders are going to pop. Any tips on how to deal with this?

A very motivated, engaging, wonderful person. Great talk with great insights :)

Thanks! Just bought your Isometrics book as well. I've watched a number of your videos on shoulders and shoulder blades. You've really helped me to see what I need to do after an injury. Far more than any PT

I love you for this video! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. That is just what I needed to hear. Have a fantastic day.

Half repping has been working for me! That and finally dialing in my daily protein to 1gr per pound. Best results I've had in years! Best part, it's all daily bodyweight training!

... as a German Biologist - I am fascinated with the achievements we made - based on insight, intuition, awareness, studying, exploring - this was the way to modern Science” which abruptly discards its origins and excludes everything not based on previous “facts” this creates a sort of incest inbreeding a circual way of dealing with ideologies and policing all the anarachists trying to break out from that vicious cycle I call it Cosmic Radio when we are relaxed, calm, receptive immune to the noises of the techno sphere we are still at the beginning of human evolution and we will stop it with infantile delusions...

Make small, iterative tweeks over months and years.

I'm having vertigo from seeing your room look like a fricken cluster bomb....

I think an issue is that people do too much. They've been told that they need to do 3-5 sets. That they need to train 3-5x a week. Drink protein shakes and stock up on creatine. I do only 1 set and train for an hour twice a week and get results. It's basically the Jay Vincent protocol. It's a much smaller time investment, and costs less energy. I don't want to beat up my body. Or fight with myself to force myself to go to the gym because I'm feeling sore and have no energy or will to train. If I had to force myself or put in this huge commitment then I wouldn't last more than three months either. Much of it comes down to standard fitness advice being too much. I also hate stretching and warming up so I don't do it. You don't have to - unless you're feeling particularly stiff that day. Unfit people would get pretty far just doing push-ups alone. One set twice per week. They'll be done in minutes. Let them conquer this exercise first, it might take them a while before their wrists adapt. They could elevate their palms in the beginning, or get on their knees. Then take it from there. Add in another exercise, something you like to do. Diet? Just up protein and cut down carbs for weight loss. No need for cabbage or celery sticks. Fitness is so much easier than it's made out to be. If you begin where you're at and put in consistent effort without imitating or comparing yourself to Arnold Schwarzenegger then the results are gonna come. Most people don't need to do a lot.

Just getting to the gym (or any exercise) is a victory some days.

thanks for the video

It took me way too long in life to realize the majority of humans are failures and cannot be helped.

I FREAKING LOVE DIPS

You can't take the I out of fitness. People lose sight of key drivers of success - do you enjoy it? does it fit your routine etc. Start there and the purpose of the science is to optimize.

Bro I don't want to become body builder or pro athlete ... I just want to become fit look good and avoid injuries.... I have been doing heavy weight excercises from 4-5 years and I have muscle in my body now I order to have them pump I am shifting on push up, pull up, body weight squats, plank and bridging That's it

you look amazing 🤩

Nurse here. I've been able to maintain a healthy body weight for the past 40 years through a balanced diet and lifting. I kinda sorta got caught up in the carnivore diet this year. Let me tell you my results! I successfully gained 20 lbs of body fat and gave myself high cholesterol! I'm back to what works for me ( lean proteins and low fat dairy, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and beans). I've lost 15 lbs in 3 months. I have no idea what I was thinking other than I got caught up in the carnivore "science". Also, every time I eat a bowl of oatmeal, my bank account cries happy tears. Carnivore is expensive.

science should still be used but not the way it's abused by the general pop i.e. random mechanistic mumbo jumbo and parroting models as hard fact/axiom instead of with skepticism

It's about being reasonable and consistent and not dogmatic. Good video.
